In the early of 1600s, England had one official church. If you did not belong to the Church of England, you were breaking the law. Some groups were willing to worship secretly and risk arrest to practice their own beliefs. One of these groups was the Separatists. They wanted to follow God's word simply, without the extra rules set by the Church of England.
In dramatic, graphic novel format, this book tells how the Separatists came to the decision to risk their lives and leave Holland to sail to Virginia. Readers will learn about what the voyage must have been like, where the Separatists really ended up and much more.
